I actually wrote a longer comment but deleted it because i didn’t think it was fully formed:
> Maybe it’s like an operating system context switch. I feel like I am in one mind because I have memories of what came before even microseconds ago. But how do I know that my memories were not just loaded right now for processing...I guess simulation theory stuff. We don’t really have any proof that we were actually in control of the moment that just happened a microsecond ago - that could all be an illusion.
Just a funny coincidence that on such a topic as a global consciousness we had such a similar idea ;)
- skhm 5y agoHa, that's a lovely coincidence, thanks for sharing. FWIW I went down this train of thought while listening to an audiobook of Hofstadter's "I am a Strange Loop", which doesn't quite go down the same road but triggered the idea well enough in my own brain.
